Most of researchers emphasize that using of differentiation strategy is targeted at maintaining students’ educational potentials and academic progress. Both Ukrainian and foreign researchers draw attention that the differentiated instruction improves schooling by taking into consideration students’ individual and cultural learning styles, realizes that some students will require appropriate expectations. Educational differentiation offers various ways for students to study discipline and translate that knowledge into concrete, effective and targeted action. Particular emphasis in the article is on practical proposals how to start using differentiated instruction in the schooling process. The author of the article therefore examines key principles of quality differentiation and useful steps for planning and developing the differentiated lessons.
